Hard On Yourself

I thought I saw
You pass right outside my door
I ran
But you must have gone the other way
I turned around
And I saw you all by yourself
I touched your shoulder but when you turned around I saw somebody else

Not sure who you thought I was
But I'm sure they're out there somewhere
By themselves waiting on your touch
Even if they're with somebody else
If they deserve your love
They're thinking about you right this moment
Don't you think too much
Don't be so hard on yourself

I'll hold on
To my love
Cuz right now it's all I got
We're so close
Yet so far
Only see you in my thoughts
I've got your phone
But I won't call
Don't know if you'd wanna talk
Remember us for what we were
Not for what we have become

I thought I saw
You walking up and down my street
I tried to call you from my window
You ain't hear so I leaped
I chased you all through traffic
I finally caught up to ya
But when I touched your shoulder
It felt much colder
Cuz it wasn't you I was pursuing

Not sure who you thought I was
But I'm sure they're out there somewhere
By themselves waiting on your touch
Even if they're with somebody else
If they deserve your love
They're thinking about you right this moment
Don't you think too much
Don't be so hard on yourself

I'll hold on
To my love
Cuz right now it's all I got
We're so close
Yet so far
Only see you in my thoughts
I've got your phone
But I won't call
Don't know if you'd wanna talk
Remember us for what we were
Not for what we have become

I'll hold on
To my love
Cuz right now it's all I got
We're so close
Yet so far
Haven't seen you in so long
I've got your phone
But I won't call
Don't know if you'd wanna talk
Remember us for what we were
Not for what we have become

And if you fall in love
Tell me swear I wanna know
And I ain't giving up
Just in case you wanna know
But we don't gotta rush
Baby we can take this slow
I'm thinking about us being old

But we still so young
We got a lotta growing to do
Hopefully it's not growing apart
Hopefully we
Light up the dark
Hopefully those lights are in our hearts

Hopefully we don't drift to far
From where the light is
Long as we find it
We golden
We touch like midas
Love please don't fight this
The violence
It seems it's constant
We closed in
We got this pride
And it's deep inside
Destroying our lives
What if I told you we could find
Something to define
What our minds
Have tried to keep inside
Tell you I wanna hear you cry lightning
Leave an impact leave a sign on a life
And don't be so hard on yourself

I'll hold on
To my love
Cuz right now it's all I got
We're so close
Yet so far
Haven't seen you in so long
I've got your phone
But I won't call
Don't know if you'd wanna talk
Remember us for what we were
Not for what we have become

Just walk on by me
Ain't no need to take notice
To tell you the truth
Im ashamed to be sad and to show it
If I put a smile that's fake on
Will someone see through it
Will somebody give me the love that I need
Cuz I'm not gonna ask I already been through it

I already been broken and built up again
I think I'm starting to build up a tolerance
I don't think that I struggle to show my emotions
I just struggle to balance what I'm putting in
I don't really want no shorty
But for that girl I'll make an exception
Cross hearts and hope to die
Take a knockout to the chin

Not sure who you thought I was
But I'm sure they're out there somewhere
By themselves waiting on your touch
Even if they're with somebody else
If they deserve your love
They're thinking about you right this moment
Don't you think too much
Don't be so hard on yourself
